Noise And Vibration - Flex XFE 7-15 125 Original Operating Instructions

XFE 7-15 125 / XFE 7-15 150 / XCE 10-8 125
Do not run the power tool while carrying it

at your side. Accidental contact with the
spinning accessory could snag your
clothing, pulling the accessory into your
body.
Regularly clean the power tool's air vents.

The motor's fan will draw the dust inside
the housing and excessive accumulation
of powdered metal may cause electrical
hazards.
Do not operate the power tool near

flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid

coolants. Using water or other liquid
coolants may result in electrocution or
shock.
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or
snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or
any other accessory. Pinching or snagging
causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory
which in turn causes the uncontrolled power
tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the
accessory's rotation at the point of the
binding.For example, if an abrasive wheel is
snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the
edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch
point can dig into the surface of the material
causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The
wheel may either jump toward or away from
the operator, depending on direction of the
wheel's movement at the point of pinching.
Abrasive wheels may also break under these
conditions. Kickback is the result of power tool
misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures
or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and

position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Always use
auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum
control over kickback or torque reaction
during start-up. The operator can control
torque reactions or kickback forces, if
proper precautions are taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating

accessory. Accessory may kickback over
your hand.
Do not position your body in the area

where power tool will move if kickback
occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in
direction opposite to the wheel's
movement at the point of snagging.
Use special care when working corners,

sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp
edges or bouncing have a tendency to
snag the rotating accessory and cause
loss of control or kickback.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving
blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of
control.
Safety Warnings Specific for
Operations
Polishing
Do not allow any loose portion of the

polishing bonnet or its attachment strings
to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any
loose attachment strings.
Loose and spinning attachment strings
can entangle your fingers or snag
on the workpiece.
Additional safety instructions
The mains voltage and the voltage

specifications on the rating plate must
correspond.
Do not press the spindle lock until the tool

stops.

Noise and vibration

NOTE
Values for the A-weighted sound pressure
level and for the total vibration values can
be found in the "Technical specifications"
table.
The noise and vibration values have been
determined in accordance with EN 62841.
CAUTION!
The indicated measurements refer to new
power tools. Daily use causes the noise and
vibration values to change.
